This is in the box of the 2005 I purchased 2 weeks ago. It clearly fits the plug under the steering wheel, but I don't know it's purpose.

It's an insurance tracking device. One of those things that lets a company know if you are a "safe" driver, or not.

Here's an interesting read How the Hughes Telematics Device Works | HowStuffWorks
I don't know if that is for the pictured device.

Also, Verizon acquired Hughes Telematics ten years ago and the HowStuffWorks link is even older, so it's probably all obsolete...
